Bill Todman Jr. has inked a first-look film and TV production pact with 20th Century Fox-based Kopelson Entertainment.
The pact marks the first time producers Arnold and Anne Kopelson have supported such an arrangement.
In a statement, Arnold Kopelson said the deal “gives us access to a multitude of projects that Bill has been developing and we look forward to material that he will bring to the company. Bill’s extensive experience in both motion picture and television production will be a welcomed enhancement to Kopelson Entertainment.”
Todman most recently served as exec producer on Warner Bros.’ “Wild Wild West.” He worked from May 1995 to early 1998 as head of production at Morgan Creek Prods., where he oversaw development and production for the banner’s film and TV projects.
